Origin Middle English (in sense 3 of the noun): from Old English liste 'border', of Germanic origin; related to Dutch lijst and German Leiste. sense 2 of the noun is late Middle English, from Old French lisse; sense 1 of the noun is late 16th century, from French liste, of Germanic origin. In the sense ‘a number of connected items or names’, list came from French in the late 16th century. The origin of the French word appears to be the root of another list that already existed in English, with the meaning ‘a border, edge, or strip’—presumably from the strip of paper on which a list would have been written. Its main use now is for the selvedge or sewn edge of a piece of fabric. The origins of to enter the lists ‘to issue or accept a challenge’ have nothing to do with signing up, but go back to the days of knights and jousting tournaments. These lists were the enclosed area where jousts took place or rather the barriers surrounding this area—but the meaning was extended to refer to the yard itself. If you chose to enter the lists you were formally agreeing to take part in combat. There was another list, now obsolete, meaning ‘desire, wish’ which still survives in listless (Middle English) literally ‘without desire’.
